Pursuant to RCW 53.08.090, a Port commission may, by resolution renewed from year to year, authorize
the managing officer of a port district to sell and convey port district personal property of $10,000 or
less in value. Section 18 of Resolution No. 3605, as Amended, provides that the annual renewal of the
Chief Executive Officer's authority may be accomplished by motion. It is now the appropriate time for
the Commission to renew the Chief Executive Officer's authority to the year 2011.
